Arm is fixed! Thanks to Barry!

Made a template out of cardboard,  took it to the the local FabWorx shop just 2 blocks away from me cut a test piece out.  A quick cycle of the suspension without shocks shows the bumpsteer much improved.  The lower arm is exactly the same angle as the tie rod now.  The test piece has moved the rod end mount down 1 3/8" and inward 1/2".  The final piece will be dual brackets for double sheer.

how much bump steer now?

Went from 3.5" to 1/2" or less now.   A before and after video showing the difference.

At one point, did you mention that this was Phil's personal rail? Or one of them anyway.


That was a lot of bump and you did a great job fixing the problem.

Thanks, it was a lot of trial and error.
Yes, this was his personal car he built then sold.  During that time of his build/ownership it has combo spindles with the tie rod mounting point almost all the way towards the top of the spindle, also not double sheer.  I found out that Carl has one of the spindles still.  Hopefully able to pick it up from Carl someday.

Trial and error definitely works! You won't even feel 1/2" of bump on pavement.

I am surprised his personal rail had that much bump.

I hope carl has that spindle. Would be a good idea to have some parts made and make a jig fixture from it....just in case. I hope you never need one but just in case.
